Subscribe
Eight titles landed on Netflix US this Monday, led by a Japanese action franchise's second live-action film. The Hot Ones wings-of-death format makes its Netflix jump tonight, an 86%-fresh indie rom-com arrives, and Jay Shetty's podcast goes video. The Tusk leaves today.
The pick of the day: Golden Kamuy -The Abashiri Prison Raid-
Golden Kamuy -The Abashiri Prison Raid- arrives on Netflix today, the second live-action film adapted from Satoru Noda's Golden Kamuy manga and the third part of the live-action series that began with the 2024 film (which opened at number one in Japan and grossed $19 million there). Kento Yamazaki returns as the war-veteran Sugimoto and Anna Yamada as the Ainu girl Asirpa, racing rival factions to break into Abashiri Prison and reach the man who holds the secret of a hoard of stolen Ainu gold.
- The first film opened at number one in Japan in January 2024 and earned 533 million yen in its first three days. This sequel opened March 13, 2026 at number three, earning 368 million yen (about $2.3 million) in its opening three days, Anime News Network reports.
- Director Kenji Katagiri and screenwriter Tsutomu Kuroiwa return, along with a sprawling ensemble including Gordon Maeda, Hiroshi Tachi, Hiroyuki Ikeuchi, and Jun Kunimura. The runtime is 2 hours 2 minutes.
- No US critic reviews have landed yet. Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic both show zero reviews as of this morning. MyDramaList users give it an 8.0 from 16 ratings. If you watched the first film on Netflix, this is the direct continuation.
Hot Ones goes to Netflix, and it kicks off tonight after the Home Run Derby
Two things arrive together tonight. First, the MLB Home Run Derby 2026 streams live on Netflix at 8 p.m. Eastern from Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. Then, immediately after the Derby wraps, Hot Ones: Extra Heat premieres its first episode.
- Extra Heat is a Netflix-exclusive spinoff of Sean Evans' YouTube interview show, which has produced more than 400 episodes since 2015. Each 30-minute special takes the signature 10-wing challenge out of the studio and on location at Netflix tentpole events, The Hollywood Reporter confirms.
- The first episode's guests are Will Ferrell, Fortune Feimster, and Jimmy Tatro, all promoting The Hawk, the Will Ferrell golf comedy series that drops on Netflix Thursday. The main Hot Ones show stays on YouTube.
- Both the Derby and the first Extra Heat episode air tonight, so neither is watchable at the moment you are reading this. Queue them for the evening.
Mile End Kicks: an 86%-fresh indie rom-com set in 2011 Montreal
Mile End Kicks makes its subscription-streaming debut on Netflix today, three months after its theatrical run and ten months after its TIFF premiere. Chandler Levack, who wrote and directed the 2022 indie darling I Like Movies, set this film in Montreal's indie rock scene in 2011. Barbie Ferreira (Euphoria) plays Grace, a 24-year-old music critic who moves to Montreal to write a book about Alanis Morissette's Jagged Little Pill and instead gets entangled with two members of a scrappy local band. Devon Bostick (Rodrick from Diary of a Wimpy Kid) and Stanley Simons (The Iron Claw) co-star, with Jay Baruchel in a supporting role.
It sits at 86% on Rotten Tomatoes, runs 1 hour 45 minutes, and is rated R. Roger Ebert's site called it "a breath of fresh air" and "a complex portrait of a young woman in search of her voice," What's on Netflix notes. If you have any nostalgia for early-2010s Tumblr, Arcade Fire, and American Apparel, this is the one to queue tonight.
Jay Shetty's On Purpose podcast goes video on Netflix
On Purpose with Jay Shetty begins streaming video episodes on Netflix today under a joint Netflix-Spotify deal reportedly worth about $100 million, Variety reports. Shetty launched the podcast in 2019 and has released more than 800 episodes.
